On 3-25-26, the Washington Post penned the article that: "White House’s Iran memes horrify many veterans of U.S. wars", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

A president seeking war authorization SHOULD lay out the reasons for action and spell out his objectives. Trump failed to do either. Our ego driven and delusional president has taken us to war all on his own. Trump gives us every reason not to trust him yet demands unrepentant loyalty. He's turning our military defense forces into the same type of administration enforcement arm he created with the ICE thugs, only with a bigger mission.

       On 3-22-26, a Meta (Facebook) posting expressing displeasure with President Trump's remarks about the recent death of Robert Muller resulted in the following remark from the Enlighted Prisoner,

Trump's unhinged and petty remarks about the passing of Robert Muller that were expressed on the "Truth (Un)Social" social media platform, a business that is owned by the Trump organization and one that pays him for his use of it, truly represent what an unethical and totally vindictive mean-spirited individual he is. His record of actions disgracing the Constitutional duties and protocols for the elected office of President by abuse and misuse is only exceeded by the inactions of the elected members of Congress who refuse to hold him, his Administration and his Cabinet in Constitutional accountability. A duty which Congress has abandoned but is being pursued by our Judicial Branch, an independent Constitutional authority for the legal administration of our government.

        On 3-19-26, the Washington Post penned the article: "Trump threatens to blow up major Iranian gas field as energy prices soar higher", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

Maybe it's time for a historical reminder. Remember the Berlin wall coming down? It was the poster event that announced the destruction of Russian's Communist government. The public perception was the failure of communisms' ideology when the actual cause was economic disaster. That's right, the arms race between the US and Russia had bankrupted the Russian economy. It was the later discoveries of Russia's vast oil and gas reserves that brought the country back and Putin's regime that created Russia's Oligarchy fussed totalitarian government.

Now, fast forward to the strategy being used to force the US into these expensive incursion wars that's rapidly burning up our military resources and the huge amounts of money going to our military Industrial complex to replenish those resources. Just thought I'd point out something overlooked about history effects.

       On 3-19-26, the Washington Post penned the article: "Drones over base where Rubio, Hegseth live raise security concerns", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

This report was made for show and lacks substantive basis. No definitive evidence was offered to establish its authentication as threating. This is an example of WAPO adherence to the administration's gaslighting campaign and an example of appeasement reporting and the shame of compromised media.

       On 3-17-26, the Washington Post penned an article that: "Judge reinstates 1,000 Voice of America employees, deems firings illegal", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

Public opinion is in and reports, this is the most cruel and arrogant administration to ever run our government. But bad as that is, his first and now this Trump administration owns the title of most incompetent. And it's unfortunate we need wait for an election to punish an even more incompetent Congress.

       On 3-15-26, the Washington Post penned an article that the "FCC chief threatens broadcasters as Trump criticizes coverage of Iran war", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

How rude and empty WAPO's coverage of news has become. The President gives a typical childish truth social network rant that shouldn't pass community guidelines, and you chose to make a headline story that does nothing but add to his list of embarrassing displays of communication incompetency.

I'd preferer to hear the intelligent wisdom of Dr. Martin Luther King included in your story who said, "It is immoral to seek the humiliation of an opponent rather than win his understanding."

But an immoral President is what our money infused elites bought for us, isn't it.

       On 3-14-26, the Washington Post penned the article: "Trump says U.S. bombed Kharg Island, striking core of Iran’s oil economy", and on that date the Enlighted Prisoner responded thus:

Remember the "Pentagon Papers"? Those, (that a government employee snuck out to the media), that represented an analyzed evaluation by qualified people in the Pentagon. They said the US cannot affect a regime change nor win a costly ground battle to change the Communist government of Vietnam. The Republican administration, (of Richard Nixon), was forced to admit their own military and civilian advisors advised against warfare they couldn't win. But the Nixon folk kept the report secret and started one of the most prolonged and unpopular wars in our history. In fact, the Vietnam war was a huge expensive affair that started the national debt we have today. Well, the critical thinkers in the Pentagon also said the same thing about our "incursion", (War is such an untidy term), into Iran. And further that "incursions" into Venezuela and Cuba would also not result in regime change. But our President is mad because none of those "incursion" countries talk nice about him. And we're paying for his hissy-fit?

       On 3-10-26, the Washington Post penned, (upon discovering) that now: "Pentagon says about 140 troops injured in war with Iran, 8 severely", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

The corruption of this administration has no boundaries. And frankly owns a huge national attitude for lack of confidence. What a time to have an impotent Congress.

       On 3-9-26, the Washington Post penned an article that: "A wartime presidency defined by Trump’s unique political style", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus: 

"But he has also found space to post on Truth Social eight times about a dispute with comedian and talk-show host Bill Maher, whom he declared was a “highly overrated lightweight,” joke with Latin American leaders about whether to charge money for his endorsement in their races, and opine on the physical attraction of the star soccer player Lionel Messi and the entire Inter Miami championship team." (Quoted from the Birnbaum essay.)

Sounds like the moves of a wartime President?  Nay, sounds more like the same old unhinged war-lord mentality we've come to expect from Trump's addled mind.

       On 3-7-26, the Washington Post penned an article that: "DHS feeds talking points to Republicans as opposition to ICE warehouses swells", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

It’s time to “follow the money” on just who benefits from the purchase of these abandoned warehouse properties. And let’s hear about the lack of public or Congressional oversight for determining why the purchase was necessary, (do we really intent on maintaining these properties for long-term housing of who?), and the intent to create a work force to man & maintain them?
